What is the energy of an X-ray?
The strength of an xray is refered to as kVp, and it varies depending on the speed of the electrons before they hit the anode inside the x-ray tube.
Can airport xray machines see diamonds?
Yes an airport xray will pick up a diamond or multiple. ( source airport worker )
What is the maximum amount of leakage radiation that can escape from an xray tube?
1 mGya/hr at 1 meter.
What are the people that do x rays?
They are radiologic technologists, or radiographers for short.
The radiation emitted from the xray tube and strikes the patient directly is called?
primary radiation
What following piece of equipment was used by jj Thomson to find electrons?
J.J. Thomson used a cathode ray tube to discover electrons. By passing an electric current through the tube, he observed the deflection of a beam of electrons, which led to his conclusion about the existence of electrons.
What is the proper method of confirming nasogastric tube placement?
Confirming Nasogastric tube placement must be done through pH testing and xray, not by using the whoosh method.
Do X-rays originate from the cathode or the anode of an X-ray tube Yes anode are the source but is this where they ORIGINATE from?
X-rays result when high energy electrons slam into stuff, mostly metals. We accelerate electrons by using high voltage. An X-ray tube has high voltage applied between a cathode and an anode. The cathode, from which the electrons originate, is negative, and the anode, which is positive is the "target" for those electrons. The electrons, having been accelerated by the high voltage, "slam into" the anode, and generate the X-rays. The anode is the source of the X-rays.
How are electrons generated in a gas filled tube?
As this relates to EE, the electrons are already in there.
What is the source of error when using a test tube?
A test tube (or sample tube) has no errors.
Factors influencing quality and intensity of xray?
Power of the X-ray tube, voltage applied, current intensity, anticathode type, filters, collimator, tube design, working atmosphere, etc.
What is the direction of current in picture tube of TV?
A cathode ray tube (CRT) emits light when electrons strike the front of the glass tube that is covered in a phosphor coating. The front of the tube is the anode of the tube. The electrons are fired from the rear of the tube by an electrode called the cathode. The electrons are formed into a beam or ray, hence the name of cathode ray tube. Although the electrons travel from the rear of the tube to the front, or from the cathode to the anode, conventional current actually flows the opposite direction. So, the current, as measured in amps will flow from the anode to the cathode.
